Number of feet of heat cable allowed per circuit breakerthe 8” Eave, 12” Eave, Valley, Utility Panel Systems utilize 2 feet of Heat Trace per foot of panel. The 18” Eave Panel System will utilize three feet of cable per foot. Pay strict attention to the ambient start up temperature, circuit size and load requirement.
The Eave Panel melts ice in the freeze zone at the roof’s eave.
The Valley Panel melts ice in the freeze zone at the roof’s valley.
The size of the eave freeze area determines the size of the eave panel.

Ice Stop cables are designed to be installed within the larger of the two channels. This channel is sized for ap-proximately 14mm heat cable.
3/8 in. PEX tubing or similar sized radiant tubings are designed to be installed within the round channel. This channel is sized for approximately 3/8 inch radiant PEX tubing.
How to select the correct heat channel All of our products can incorporate different types of heat sources, such as, 14 mm self regulating heat cable, Mineral Insulated Cable and Hydronic / Radiant Tubing. Thermal Technologies’ technically advanced aluminum alloy extru-sions are manufactured with specific sized channels for specific sized heat cables.
14mmcable
3/8” pexTubing
If multiple sized channels are available, only fill one size on each side of the panel with the correct cable or tubing.
Note: All products manufactured by Thermal Technologies incorporate the same or similar superior internal configuration as the systems shown here. The same installation parameters with regards to channels vs. heat source apply to all of the other panel system products manufactured and sold by Thermal Technologies.
This picture shows the correct cable in the correct channel. The separation between the snap-loc top and base unit are designed and manufactured within tight tolerances. This separation eliminates the characteristics of a cover panel supported by the base panel, yet enables direct heat transfer or direct thermal conductivity to occur between the heat source and the base and top units. No other product designed, manufactured or sold compares to the excep-tional quality and outstanding performance of the products offered by Thermal Technologies.
